10 Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
11 The rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother; and they put themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
12 He said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then you shall help me; but if the children of Ammon be too strong for you, then I will help you.
13 Be of good courage, and let us play the man for our people, and for the cities of our God: and Yahweh do that which seems him good.
14 So Joab and the people who were with him drew near before the Syrians to the battle; and they fled before him.
